Hello and welcome to the second instalment of the 2025 Women’s Ashes. Today’s fifty over bout takes place in Melbourne’s Junction Oval and comes hot on the heels of the home side taking the spoils (two points) in Sydney during the first encounter of the series at the weekend.
That first game was a comfortable win for Alyssa Healy’s talent toting XI, albeit they didn’t have to be in top gear to see off an undercooked England side.
